for SSA or SATB, piano, and optional guitar, bass, and drum kit Samba Mass is a joyous and colourful setting of the Latin Missa brevis. The stylistic piano part in the vocal score can be played as written or serve as a guide, and this optional guitar, bass, and drum kit part, with chord symbols, facilitates band accompaniment. Performers will enjoy exploring the interplay between voices and the rich, warm colours of the samba and bossa nova styles.
